Human Wise

Ep1. A New View Of Success: More Than Metrics & Medals with Cath Bishop

November 29, 2023 Helen Wada Season 1 Episode 1

Welcome to Human Wise, the podcast that explores the commercial advantage of being human at work. 


With host Helen Wada, executive coach and founder of The Human Advantage, each episode will explore what being human at work looks like across a wide range of industries, from people in senior management to those on the ground.


This week, Helen is joined by Cath Bishop, former Olympic rower turned successful business and leadership coach. Cath is author of The Long Win, which in 2020 was listed in the Financial Times’ Top 10 Business Books. 


They discuss the importance of clarity in how we define success, the role of trust and vulnerability in building successful relationships, and how we can cultivate a growth mindset.


Join Helen and Cath as they answer the complex question of how we can define our ambitions in a way that acknowledges our human nature (in flux, ever changing). What’s the difference between finite versus infinite definitions of success? And why should we be careful of metrics?
